Chapter 172 Li Gui’s Past
Yang Pingan and Li Gui stayed in the mixed zone of the Star Dou Forest for a full month, but they did not find any suitable soul beasts, or they were too old. Low, or the attributes are somewhat inconsistent.
Of course, many good soul beasts were discovered this month, including several dragon-type soul beasts, but they were not as good as Yang Pingan's expectations, and even a little lower than expected.
Even with Li Gui as a Soul Douluo and the Purple Gold Mastiff's powerful sense of smell, he still encountered danger many times and was even besieged by various spirit beasts. Every time, Li Gui led Yang Ping'an and fled in a hurry.
On this day, Yang Ping'an and Li Gui were chased by a group of wind demon wolves. The leader of the wolf pack was as old as 50,000 years and was considered one of the largest overlords in the mixed zone.
Fortunately, Li Gui's speed and reaction were extremely fast. He took Yang Ping'an and transformed into a ghost shadow, hiding directly under the ground. Before the Gale Demon Wolf was ready to dig the ground, he had already left quickly along the underground undercurrents and shadows. .
But this time it was quite tragic. Both Yang Pingan and Li Gui were scratched by the Wind Demon Wolf, and the injuries were serious.
To Yang Ping'an and Li Gui's surprise, there was an underground river under the Star Dou Forest, and there were also certain holes. It seemed that no one had ever set foot here.
That's right. Li Gui had already fled for his life regardless of the danger. He had no direction at all. He didn't even know where he was. He only knew that he was in a desperate situation.
However, Yang Pingan judged based on the location and the intensity of the aura, and estimated that this was already the core area of the Star Forest.
But Yang Ping'an always felt that there seemed to be something he longed for deep in the dark river, especially something that could make the Purple Gold Mastiff a little throbbing.
The two of them panted heavily by the dark river and quickly swallowed the medicine, hoping to recover their bodies and lost soul power as soon as possible.
I have to say that Li Gui’s martial spirit is indeed very good. Whether at night or in some dark places, his strength can basically be doubled, and his detection ability is extremely strong. He is worthy of being the focus of training for Ghost Douluo. personnel.
Yang Pingan said with some confusion: "Uncle Li Gui, according to your strength, you should be able to serve as a bishop in Wuhun Palace, or even have a higher status."
As Yang Ping'an said, Li Gui has special abilities, and he is also a Contra-level powerhouse. He can even compete with top Contras at night, and he can definitely be heard by the big shots in the party.
Li Gui just sneered: "Haha, I don't have much sense of belonging to Wuhun Palace, and I'm not even from Wuhun Palace."
Yang Ping'an was surprised: "How is this possible? With Li Uncle Gui, your abilities are definitely the focus of training even in the two empires. By the way, where is your hometown?"
A look of indifference appeared on Li Gui's face: "I don't have a hometown, nor anything. Dear, so I am not in Wuhun He is just a ghost in the palace's establishment."
Yang Ping'an was immediately interested: "This shouldn't be the case. Even people secretly trained by Wuhun Palace must have an identity, even if they are not born. Nobles should also have their own families."
Li Gui just felt depressed after hearing this, and after a long time he said: "I am not a commoner trained by Wuhun Palace, but a slave."< br>
Li Gui has been following Yang Pingan recently. He was surprised by Yang Pingan's mysteriousness, but he always felt that Yang Pingan was different from ordinary people. He did not have the aloofness of a soul master, nor did he have any concern for civilians. She looked down upon her and didn't even use any maids or slaves. She seemed a bit out of tune with this world.
However, many of Yang Pingan's plans are in his eyes. It is hard to imagine that an eighteen-year-old young man can actually do so many things to become stronger, and these plans are basically successful. He even dared to use the mere Soul Sect to plot a title Douluo.
When Yang Ping'an heard that Li Gui was born just a slave, he was also surprised. Normally, nobles would buy a lot of slaves, but they basically choose boys and girls who are handsome or beautiful. The slaves are just hard labor for a lifetime, and they will not even help these slaves awaken their martial souls. After all, they are also afraid that these slaves will retaliate against him in the future.
Yang Pingan then carefully observed Li Gui's face. Although Li Gui looked like a thin old man, he was obviously not too old. He was probably in his early fifties, but his face was extremely thin. , there was no trace of blood on his face, especially as there was some kind of mark on his forehead, which looked like the mark on the face of a slave he had seen before.
At this moment, Yang Ping'an seemed to be thinking of something: "Uncle Li Gui, now that you have strength, why don't you think about your own affairs? Have you never thought about being famous all over the world in an upright manner?" Li Gui When the ghost heard this, he just murmured at the corner of his mouth, seeming to be a little averse to being upright and famous. I don't know how long it took before he slowly spoke: "Ping An, you know, in fact, I am only forty-one years old now. The reason why I look old is because I have been living in darkness, and I dare not face it. I dare not face anything against Sunshine, not even the ghost elder.”
“Actually, Elder Gui has told me many times that if I am willing, he can let me serve in Wuhun Hall, and the position will definitely not be too low, but I have always refused.”< br>
Yang Pingan thought for a long time before He said: "Uncle Li Gui, are you resenting something? Or are you afraid of something? You should be very clear about my past. If you have anything, you can tell me. Maybe I can help you change your destiny."
Li Gui just sighed: "No. Why don't you want to be unwilling? I was born in the Star Luo Empire and grew up in Star Luo City as an ordinary little noble. But when I was young, my family offended the Star Luo royal family and everyone in the family was killed. , and I became a slave at a young age. ”
“Originally, I was trafficked to work in a private mine. I was only five years old at the time. A five-year-old child had to wait in the mine for a long time, or in an iron cage, facing only skin. Whip and bloody.”
"It was the ghost elder who saved me. The ghost elder found the mine based on a murder case against Wuhun Temple. Facing us skinny children and miners, it was he who gave us hope."
" But because I have been in darkness for a long time, I am afraid of interacting with others, afraid of seeing the sun, and refuse to accept the arrangements of Wuhun Palace. It was Elder Ghost who took me in. Xidu was given to me by the ghost elder, so I am willing to do anything for the ghost elder."
Yang Pingan was silent for a while. There is indeed no such peace in the world of Douluo Continent, and all the major forces. For some so-called good seedlings, wars broke out many times between the Tiandou Empire and the Star Luo Empire. Countless people were displaced and many even became slaves.
However, Yang Pingan seemed to be playful and said: "Uncle Li Gui, according to this, you should be regarded as the disciple of Uncle Gui, right."
Li Gui was surprised when he heard this. Yi Zhi: "I'm just a wandering ghost, and I don't dare to be the disciple of the ghost elder."
Yang Ping'an was just speechless for a while. It seemed that his guess was right. Elder Gui might really train Li Gui as his disciple. After all, the two had very similar martial spirits and even had similar personalities.
Besides, Li Gui has already reached the Contra level at the age of forty-one. In terms of talent, he is definitely very good in all aspects. You must know that the core personnel of many large sects can only do this. It seems that Gui Dou Luo put a lot of effort into him.
After the two rested for a while, they walked deeper along the underground river.
Normally no one would enter a place like this. The width and height simply cannot accommodate two adults. Whenever they want to rest, they can only dig a small cave with their claws to rest.
And all this relies on Li Gui's ability to turn into a ghost shadow and even lead Yang Ping'an to walk quickly.
As the two of them got deeper and deeper, Yang Ping'an seemed to have some kind of fear in his heart. The soul beast that could live in such a place was definitely not simple, and it might even be very scary.
As the two of them went deeper, suddenly there was a strong aura coming from the dark river, and there was a very large amount of aura, and the whole mind was filled with the perception of soul power.
Obviously, this is probably a large group of soul beasts encountered, and they are definitely high-level soul beasts, otherwise there would not be such a strong oppressive force.
Li Gui quickly pulled Yang Ping'an into a ghost shadow and quickly hid in the dark underground river.
I saw a bunch of dense insect soul beasts flying out of the sky above Anhe. They looked extremely fast, and their entire bodies were actually golden, and they looked extremely bright even in the dark.
Yang Ping'an couldn't help but swallowed: "This seems to be a gold-eating insect. I didn't expect there to be such a large number of gold-eating insects at such a high age."
